The Inviting Side of Gretchen Wilson

I saw a whole new side to Gretchen Wilson! She was warm and inviting, opening her 400 ACRE FARM to us to get to know her and her new Redneck Records label better.

In true Redneck Woman style, Gretchen (along with her lovingly-crazy Uncle Vern!) led the pack of about 20 ATVs through the backwoods of her land…in the dark! YEEEEHAAAAAW!! Ladies, if you’ve never ridden an ATV, I urge you to try at least once in your life – it will REV YOUR ENGINES!! I screamed sounds I never thought I could make on that thing! By the way, Gretchen herself buckled me in! She initially insisted I wouldn’t need it, but one look at Jake behind the wheel, she reconsidered!

Best candid moment of the night (aside from the words coming out of my mouth on the ATV!!): Gretchen showing a smoke detector who’s boss!
She was smoking in the kitchen, just below a smoke detector. With the cigarette in one hand, she RIPPED the face of that screeching detector off with the other! Don’t mess with Gretchen!
